How to find out if your own work is also someone else’s.

“At last!”

“At lastl”

Some 220,000 doctoral dissertations have been published in this country and Canada during the past 30 years.

This year, an additional 22,000 are expected.

With our centralized store of data on this work, you can prevent your original research from turning out to be unnecessary duplication.

153,000 doctoral dissertations are already on microfilm in our files.

And every year, dissertations from hundreds of universities are added.

Then, key words from the title of each one are programmed into our dateix computerized retrieval system. So if you give us the key words that interest you, we can give you a list of all the titles they appear in. (In just a few working days, for example, we can supply you with anything from one title containing “styryltrimethylammonium” to 21,427 with “study”.)

In addition, dateix will show you where to find an abstract of each of these dd’s in Dissertation Abstracts, which we pubhsh monthly.

And if you want the dissertations themselves, dateix also tells you what it will cost for microfilm or xerographic copies.

You can then get the copies from us for as little as $3 apiece.

And have other researchers’ work lead you to the information you need to finish yours sooner. Or to avoid starting it.
